Hi, I have recently started some PLO after many years of NLHE, I find the Omaha a lot more fun and more challenging. Mostly because of the Hand Value Swings from Pre flop to post flop. The choice of which starting hands to play is pretty much wide open, I do try to play hands that have more potential, ie., straights, flushes etc. I still don't comprehend why some players in PLO MTTs choose to make wild raises pre flop. The potential for drastic hand value changes is pretty high, you would think that it would be much wiser to at least wait for the flop before going crazy. Any of you seasoned Omaha players out there have any tips for starting hands? Am I right to not play unless I have potential for at lease two options (Str8 or flush or both)? One thing for sure this is not the game for any players that TILT easily..
